Inspection Prevents Serious Symptoms of Mold Exposure
Mold exposure can cause a wide range of symptoms, both short-term and long-term.
Short-term effects of mold exposure include nasal and sinus congestion, coughing and sneezing, eye irritation, throat irritation, and skin irritation. These effects are similar to those of allergies or colds, and they can occur even if you do not have an allergy to mold.
Long-term effects of mold exposure include cognitive decline, memory loss, anxiety, depression, and difficulty concentrating.
If you experience any of these symptoms and suspect that mold might be the cause, it is important to see a doctor as soon as possible and to have your home inspected for mold.
Improves Air Quality
Did you know that mold is one of the leading causes of poor air quality?
Mold spores are tiny particles that float through the air, just like dust or pollen. As mentioned before, when these spores land on a damp surface, they begin to grow and multiply. As the mold colony grows, it produces more spores, which enter the air and can be inhaled by anyone nearby.
Inhaling mold spores can cause a variety of health problems. That's why it's so important to have a mold inspection performed by a professional if you suspect there may be mold in your home.
A professional mold inspection will identify all of the areas in your home where mold is present. Once the source of the mold growth has been identified, you can take steps to remove the mold and prevent it from returning in the future. This will improve the air quality in your home and create a healthier environment for your family.
Reduces Risk of Structural Damage to Your Home
Mold loves damp, dark places like attics. If left undetected, mold can cause serious damage to the structure of your home.
The fungus feeds on organic materials like wood and drywall, causing them to rot and crumble over time. In some cases, mold growth can even weaken the support beams in your home and lead to collapse.
A mold inspection will identify any areas of your home that are at risk for mold growth so that you can take steps to prevent it.
